Chapter 35: I want nothing to do with you
"Nala, Nala," I heard my mom calling me while she bangs against the bedroom door.
Slowly, I open my eyes.
I sat up immediately within the large soft bed realizing that I had fallen asleep peacefully last night with all the terrible mess I had went through.
"I don't remember falling asleep," I said softly. As I begin to stare at the window.
"Nala, Nala, please answer me and open the door," I heard my mom continues to bang against the door, dying to see me.
I ignore her. I was not interested in seeing her nor Dr. Charles after what they were doing here last night when I was in jail suffering. Seeing that she and the doctor wasn't bothered by the terrible situation I was within. I wasn't bothered in talking to them, so I had made my mind up to keep on ignoring them and return home within the forest when I'm through working for the alpha.
Suddenly my eyes widened, and I jump out of bed, realizing that I had work.
"Oh, my gosh, I'm late for the asshole job," I said out loud as I ran into the bathroom, strip myself naked, and went into the shower turning on the water.
The warm water runs against my body. I reach for a body wash and pour it all over my body allowing it to become soapy. I then wash off and turn off the pipe, reaching for a small white towel that seems to be clean, and wrap it around my body, drying myself.
I exit the bathroom and return into the room, hurriedly. I slow down right away seeing that I was not alone.
"How did you get in here?" I ask my mom angrily, while I gently press the towel against my body, ensuring that I was completely dry to get dress and leave.
I didn't bother to care to know how my mom had reached within the room anymore. A thought had hit me, allowing me to become worried.
I didn't have anything to wear to work, nothing at all.
"Please listen to me, Nala," my mom said to me as I turn my back towards her panicking about what to do.
I wanted nothing to do with that doctor and I was not going to ask him for any more spear clothes of his dead mate he had lying around here. But knowing how strict and horrible Alpha Anton is, I guess I will have to swallow my pride and ask if he can help me out, I thought angrily.
"Nala, just give me a few minutes to explain myself," I felt my mom touch me from behind.
I turn around angrily to face her and shouted at her to leave me the hell alone. My mom's body jumps surprisingly by my action, and she slowly walks backward and lowers herself onto the side of my bed crying her eyes out. I didn't bother to look at her for I wasn't going to feel sorry for her after what she had done.
She is my mom and being free to return home I expected to see her running happily to hug me, not lock within a room, tired after grinding the doctor.
Having to think about that hurtful thought again made me so damn angry, that I started to breathe heavily.
"Nala, just let me explain that's all I want to do," my mom cries to me, as I was about to exit the room to find the other one, I was angry with also, Doctor Charles.
"Mother I'm late for work and I don't have time to listen to you!" I shouted at her on top of my voice.
My voice echoes within the room that instantly I saw Doctor Charles rushing upstairs.
My action didn't bother me any at all. It only made things easier for me, now I didn't have to search around the house only wrap within a towel to find the doctor while I become even later for work.
"What is happening?" the doctor asks worriedly.
"I'm late for work and I need a spare of clothes in leaving before the alpha decides to punish me again," I told the doctor and ignore his question.
The doctor stares at me for a second and then at my mom at the side of my bed, still crying.
Seeing how hard he was staring at my mom and remember seeing him sweaty and only within his under pant. I felt my blood boiling within me with great rage.
"I need clothes for work now or do any of you want to speak to the alpha why I didn't show up for work," I again said angrily.
Immediately, the doctor took his eyes off my mom and turn towards me.
I stare at him gravely.
"I'll carry all my mate's clothes and you can choose the one you like," the doctor told me as he moves away from me and went off.
I roll my eyes and turn my back as he did, waiting for him to hurriedly return. Then again, my mom still within the room crying was starting to annoy me. I hated that all of a sudden, she was so worried. Worried to explain herself to me in making herself seem innocent, I thought angry. Holding the towel around my body not wanting it to fall off.
I again roll my eyes, wishing she could just leave.
"Nala, just please hear me out," my annoying mom pleaded.
"Dr. Charles!" I walk back towards the open door and shouted. Wondering what the hell he was taking so long. It seems he wanted me to be late and punish by the terrible alpha so he and my heartless mom could be wrapped up in bed, having sex again.
The doctor didn't answer and so I call again, louder than before.
"I'm coming," I heard him answer.
"Nala the time is early, you have an hour and a half to go to work," I heard my mom say behind me.
I turn to face her, very surprised at what she had said and there I saw her walking towards me.
"The time is still early," she again told me.
I didn't want to believe it. She's dying to explain herself towards me and so she would say anything to get my attention. I didn't want to believe but seeing how unworried she was when I was in jail suffering. Now, I will expect anything from my mom. It's like returning to her homeland changes her into a heartless wolf and an uncaring mother.
I saw Dr. Charles returning with a heap of clothes within his hand. All the clothes he was carrying surprised me of how he could find his way to come upstairs.
As Dr. Charles enters the room and places the clothes onto the bed. I run over to the clothes and quickly grab a black beautiful color burgundy blouse and a black skirt, rushing off into the bathroom.
"The time is too early for work," mom again told me.
I was later stopped at the door of the bathroom by Dr. Charles agreeing to my mom and informing me that it truly was early.
"You have plenty of time to listen to your mom, without being late for work," I heard the doctor say.
I continue to remain in the same position, with my back turned towards them, facing the bathroom.
"I'll let you two talk," I heard the doctor say as he leaves and closes the door behind him.
Soon it was me and my mom again.
I slowly turn around to face her, deciding to hear her out. It was now better that way, for she seems so determined for me to listen to her and it was getting to me. Still, even though I had decided to listen to her. It doesn't mean I was going to forgive her and forget how she treated the terrible situation I was in like there was nothing for her to worry about.
My mom slowly walks over to the bed and sat. I watch her, preparing for what she was about to say.
Gentle, she taps next to her, wanting me to sit beside her. I went towards her and angrily sat down. She turns towards me as I did.
"I understand for getting angry at me and I too don't blame you," my mom said sadly, as she stares at me.
I held my face straight, not wanting to look at her.
"What Dr. Charles and I were doing within the room just happen, we didn't intentionally do it," my mom explains herself to me.
"Then how did it happen?" I turn towards my mom angrily. "And how can you do such a thing when you know what I was going through?" I again question her.
"He was trying to comfort me and then it turns to him kissing me," she told me as she quickly got up from the bed and walk towards the window.
Hearing what she had said, I too got up and begin to stare at her from behind.
"So, Dr. Charles is the one who started it, he is the one to cause you to do such a thing?" I inquire my mom angrily.
Being around a male wolf like Alpha Anton, I expect Dr. Charles to be the one who had to cause my mom to do such a thing. After all, he is a man.
"Did he continue to force himself on you mom?" I inquire her as I got close to her, worried.
"No, no, no Nala," my mom told me as she quickly turns around to face me.
"Dr. Charles is good, he will never hurt me," she answers. "What we did just happen between two wolves who have a thing for each other," my mom told me.
A thing for each other, I thought as I lower my head.
"I've fallen for Dr. Charles," my mom told me. As I felt her hand touches my right shoulder.
At that moment, I felt all my anger and rage start to disappear. I no longer wish to be angry with her anymore. I understand that at one point in life my mom would want to be in love again. I didn't expect it to be like this and with the doctor.
"I wish you understand what had happened last night," my mom said. "I hope you will one day when you fall in love."
I raise my head, staring at her.
"I'm going to get ready for work," I told her as I move away from her, heading towards the bathroom.
"I'm sorry," I heard my mom apologize behind me.
"It's okay, I will let it go," I answer her as I went into the bathroom and close the door behind me.
Sadly, I unwrap the towel from around me and begin to put on my clothes.
"Knock, knock," I heard a knock on the bathroom door. I open the door and there I saw within my mom's hand a bra and underwear. I smiled at her, feeling sad about how she looked so unhappy, and took them from her, closing back the bathroom door.
Dwelling within the forest for so long. I've always forgotten to wear them.
I put on my bra and underwear and started on the clothes. The long sleeve burgundy blouse lies well on my body and the black skirt that was above my knees. I look good.
Before I exit the bathroom, I brush my teeth and made my hair into a ponytail. I didn't feel like letting my hair loose.
I check myself within the mirror and exit the bathroom. My mom was still there, sitting on the bed.
"You look beautiful," she told me.
I smiled at her and went to put on the same shoe I had on at the alpha's home.
My mom watches me as I did. I glance at her as I complete putting on my shoes and saw how sorry she actually was. It pains my heart to see her so sad, even though I was very upset about what she and Dr. Charles did, but how can I be angry at my mom. It was so hard doing so.
"Mom, I forgive you and I understand what you have said," I told my mom as I walk over to her and sat beside her.
My mom smiles and I hug her.
I heard a knock against the door that causes me to move away from my mom.
"Come in," I told Dr. Charles outside of the bedroom.
He slowly pushes the door and there I saw him entering the room with breakfast.
My mom went over to him and took the food from him, resting it on the small bedside table.
"Is everything okay?" the doctor asks my mom.
My mom nodded, telling him yes.
I could see within the doctor's eyes that he was happy that things with my mom didn't turn out for the worst.
Before he leaves, he instructed me If I wanted him to accompany me to the alpha's home, but I told him no. I knew my way now and so it was no problem going on my own.
As the doctor leaves, I got up and took a large slice of sandwich that seems to be prepared with chicken and a glassful of orange juice. What had happened to me the first day at work with the alpha. I won't allow it to happen again. I made sure that this time my stomach is full before leaving the house.
I eat my entire breakfast, sitting with my mom for a while as she too devours her meal. Soon it was time for me to leave.
"Goodbye mom," I told her as I kiss her on her forehead and went downstairs.
Soon I was out of the house. Suddenly my heart started to race and the little good feeling I had within me started to disappear knowing that I was going to the alpha's home.
Tears begin to fill my eyes worrying about what the crazy alpha will do to me today.
My heart beats even faster as I saw that I had reached on his land already and my feet trembles nervously, as I got close to the door.
"Please let today be a good day, please, I can't take any more terrible things happening to me," I beg the moon goddess as my right hand that was now trembling moves slowly towards the door, to knock on the door.
